FREE upgrade of Old GCash Mastercard to GCash Mastercard with EMV chip

You can't use this form anymore. Until Dec 8, 2017 only.

I received an SMS message from GCash last Nov 28, offering a FREE upgrade of old GCash Mastercard  to their new GCash EMV. I applied for GCash Mastercard last april and it was still the Old Gcash Mastercard.

Get a FREE upgrade ON US! Change your Old GCash Mastercard to our new GCASH EMV starting Dec 1, 2017via this link http://bit.ly/GCashMC. Data charges may apply. Deactivation of the old GCash Mastercard will take effect on Dec 31, 2017, as mandated by the BSP Circular number 859 series of 2004. #GCashMoNaYan

Just fill-up the form above then choose from 10 Globe Store locations across Mega Manila. 

Globe Store - Gateway
Globe Store - Glorietta
Globe Store - Market Market
Globe Store - Robinsons Galleria
Globe Store - SM Manila
Globe Store - SM Masinag
Globe Store - SM Sta. Mesa
Globe Store - SM Sucat
Globe Store - Trinoma
Globe Store - EDSA Shangri-la Mall

I've filled up the form above and received a confirmation SMS within 2 business days. If you already have the new GCash Mastercard with EMV, you will not receive a confirmation SMS.

Yey! Your new GCash Mastercard with EMV chip will be available for pickup at Globe Store - BRANCH from Monday-Saturday, at 12 NN-9 PM. Just present 1 valid ID and this message to our GCash rep when you claim. Love the way you pay!

I went to my preferred pickup branch then present the SMS to the GCash rep. The rep immediately processed the re-carding; asked for a VALID ID and to fill-up a form. It only took less than 30 mins. The FREE GCash Mastercard with EMV that I've received doesn't have BEEP. If you want the one with BEEP, you have to get it for P210.


The new GCash Mastercard with EMV costs P150. That day I spent P50 for fare back-and-forth + P100 food; a total of P150, plus a total commute time of around 2.5 hours. The total hours spent outside for this trip (including some shopping) = 6 hours ( ⚆ _ ⚆ )

BTW, it costs P20 to withdraw from ATM.
